C++ Builder 2006 support??

[Harlinn]

Now that you support the Delphi 2006 version, wouldn't it be natural to add support for the C++ builder 2006 personality too?

If I've understood anything about the new version - it should be possible to even use the same bpl for both the C++ and Delphi personalities.

Anyway - looking foreward to using DOA with C++ builder too!

We are looking into this. There are some compatibiliy issues to overcome.

When DOA for C++ Builder 2006 will be available?

 

[Marco Kalter]

We don't have a date yet.

 

[ThomyKay]

Any timeframe? We're currently investigating a move to BCB2006. Prerequisite is the availability of all 3rdParty components including DOA.

 

[Marco Kalter]

I have no timeframe yet. As stated above, there are some compatibility issues.

Hi Marco,

What's the compatibility issues you are having problems with?

Depending on what kind of problems you have I might attempt to solve them for you.

Espen and all,
I have a workaround until an 'official release', if you open the package project file under delphi, go to the linker options and check "Generate all C++Builder files", then rebuild the package you'll get a version that's usable with C++Builder. I've had to edit my Builder projects XML file directly and add the lib file to the sparelibs and libraries list to get things to link. Everything seems to work fine, and I get to take advantage of much faster compile times.

We have a pre-release available here:

Everything should work okay, we just need to upgrade the installer to make it general for BDS.

Let me know how things turn out.

Thanks to Espen Harlinn for helping us out with this.
